POLISHING COMPOSITION.

1T0 Drawing.

To all whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, FRANK FRED KUHN, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis, in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Polishing Composition, of which the followin is a specification.

his invention relates to a polishing composition, and the object is to provide a new and improved composition of ingredients, which, when properly proportioned and compounded, applied to a hard surface such as a piece of furniture or an automobile, and thoroughly rubbed in and down with a suitable cloth, will produce a hard glossy finish capable of retaining itself as such and thus adding to the looks and durability of the object.

The composition, when ready for use is' of a liquid consistency and is composed in the main of the following ingredients: turpentine, light paraffin oil, boiled linseed oil, ammonia, vinegar and liquid ether.

The pro ortioning and mixin of the various ingre ients are effected pre erably about as follows: To six ounces of turpentine is added fifty-seven and one-half ounces of the parafiin oil, twenty-two ounces of the boiled linseed oil and ten ounces of a ten per cent solution of ammonia. After this mixture has stood for about ten minutes thirty-two ounces of vinegar and one-fourth ounce of the ether are added.

After the above mixture has stood for about fifteen minutes it is thoroughly agitated until it takes on a light creamy color, at which time it is filled into bottles or cans.

Application filed September 22, 1922. Serial No. 589,922.

The agitation continues during the filling process so as to cause the proper proportions of each ingredient to be filled into each bottle or can, as the case may be.

When using the polish it is necessary to first shake the container well. It is then applied to the surface and rubbed down with a softcloth in much the same manner as all other polishes are usually applied.

It is understood that the proportions of the various ingredients may be modified, as may at times be found desirable, and such changes or modifications in the invention, it is understood, may be made, provided they come within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Having now therefore fully disclosed my invention what I claim is:

1. A polishing composition comprising turpentine, paraffin oil and linseed oil in substantially the following amounts: turpentine, six ounces; paraflin oil, fifty-seven ounces; and linseed oil, twenty-two ounces.

2. A polishing composition comprising vinegar, and, one-fourth ounce of ether.

In testimony whereof I afiix m si ature.
